WEBSTER, NY - The Alfred University men’s team finished in seventh place and the AU women in 12th at the Upper New York State Collegiate Swimming Association/Empire 8 Conference men’s and women’s swimming and diving championships.

The four-day championships, which concluded Saturday evening, were held at the Webster Aquatic Center. The Alfred men accumulated 553 points and the Saxon women scored 291 points. Ithaca College won both the men’s and women’s titles.

Freshman Christina Behr (Manahawkin, NJ/Southern Regional) and sophomore Heather Remchuk (Hornell, NY/Hornell) led the AU women on Saturday. Behr took 10th in the 100-yard free, setting a new school record with her time of 53.90, and Remchuk was 13th in the 200-yard breaststroke (2:33.50). Freshman Sarah Dykstra (Bellingham, WA/Sehome) was 23rd in the 200-yard backstroke (2:18.26) and junior Shelby Remington (Pike, NY/Letchworth) was 20th in the 1,650-yard freestyle (18:58.99).

The team of senior Donna Hoops (Geneseo, NY/Geneseo), Remchuk, Remington and Behr placed 12th in the 400-yasrd freestyle relay (3:48.24).

Senior Warren Dolben (Rye, NH/Berwick Academy) was the only meet champion for Alfred. He won the 100-yard breaststroke Friday with a time of 57.33 seconds, which met NCAA "B" cut provisional qualifying standards. He’ll now wait to see if his provisional time is fast enough to get him into next month’s NCAA Division III championship meet.
